FAQ
What do the five fields mean?
In order: minute (0–59), hour (0–23), day of month (1–31), month (1–12) and weekday (0–7, where 0 and 7 are Sunday). With seconds on, a seconds field (0–59) comes first.
My server runs it at a different time.
Run times here use this device's time zone. Servers and cloud schedulers often run on UTC, so convert your local time to UTC before using the expression there.
What if I set both a day of month and a weekday?
Following standard cron rules, it runs when either one matches. For example, 0 9 1 * 1 runs at 9:00 on the 1st of every month and on every Monday.
Are L, W and # supported?
No, those are extensions only some schedulers use. Shortcuts like @daily and @hourly are expanded and explained.
